This is an exciting role to work with Imagine Independence on its new Building Up Stronger (BUS) project, funded by the National Lottery and the Department of Culture, Media and Sport for a period of 6 months. A place focused, proof of concept, offering a new service in the 6 inner-city wards of Liverpool, BUS will bring forward a new, scalable service model fit for the post Covid 19 environment. By focusing on individuals’ lived experience of the Covid 19 pandemic, BUS will offer sustainable, effective interventions to promote and protect people’s well-being, in both the short and longer-term. It will do this by maximising their access to non-clinical VCSE services
As a BUS Project Facilitator (BPS), you will provide high quality support to people currently using Imagine’s services in Liverpool, so that they emerge from the Covid 19 pandemic with their wellbeing maximised. Building on their existing assets for health, you will support colleagues from Imagine to work with each individual to develop and/or improve their social and other networks, so that they recover more quickly from any impacts of the recent lockdown and the socio-economic dislocation that the pandemic has created. Helping Imagine’s support workers, you will ensure that individuals referred to BUS have a bespoke, time limited ‘BUS’ plan. This will be co-created with each person to support their recovery; enable them to be more prepared for any future lockdowns; develop and/or maintain their educational/vocational skills; and enable them to use digital platforms to access goods/services/maintain their social links. You will help your colleagues to engage in these processes using a digital platform to record and monitor/evaluate the outcomes achieved for each person.
